Irrespective of Donald Trump and his candidacy, the fact that Ross Douthat doesn’t know feces from Shinola in this context throws his whole Punditry status into the category of, “And what does Drew Barrymore think?”
Ever thought of a real, useful day job, Ross? Flip a burger, change a tire? No, I didn’t think so.
Ross can certainly do a better job of flipping burgers.
He certainly can’t write clearly. The article is aimless drivel. Then again, the average NYT fan doesn’t want to face the truth about Donald Trump anyway. So misdirection and nonsense talk is perfect for the average NYT reader.
A real reporter would be fired for writing something this incoherent.
